Illustration Friday: Run

I'm going to forego the obvious and not make any Forrest Gump jokes here. Just not worth it.

It's kinda funny, because I had this sketch already drawn in my sketchbook last week. So what a nice surprise to see that the theme was "run." Was trying something simple with the colors on top of colors here. I used the "multiply" layer effect on some of the legs, but not all of them.

Thanks for all the nice comments, guys! Yeah, originally I didn't have any legs going the other way, but then I drew one in there to see what it would look like. It gave it a more frenzied look, which is what I was trying to convey here.

Jared, no story behind this one. Just a sketch/doodle that ended up as an IF entry. Was trying something different here with the nicer shoes (I usually draw sneakers). I liked the sharper look it gave me.
